This place is great! Service, Americana Ambience and Food is Amazing. My wife and I started out with Ice teas and a margarita. For an appetizer we both had Jumbo lump crab cocktail (Fantastic). They brought out house salads and Bread with peppers. My wife had Chicken parm over capellini (very good gravy) and I had Seafood Tortellini (Crab, Shrimp and Asparagus). The portions were generous and the taste was amazing. For dessert, my wife had cinnamon roll churros with Vanilla ice cream and I had a Spumoni Bomba. We really love this place and can't wait to come back. The only thing that could be an issue is that the restaurant is small. We went on a Thursday around 4pm and were able to get a seat however I can see weekend nights may be an issue. Also shut out to Brody, our server! Made the experience 5 star. read more

Like many, I've passed by this place a million times. Finally had the chance to bring the Irishman in since he was craving a big old hunk of meat. Our server was VERY chatty, a little too chatty for me, but others at our table enjoyed his banter. I must say he was very kind with being very generous with bringing us more bread and accommodating my elderly mother. Enjoyed the cup of French onion soup. The most expensive chicken pot pie I've ever had at $29. Size was not huge, but it was tasty, and I was getting full from all the bread and the salad. A nice meal. read more

My wife and I stopped by for takeout. She and I have driven by this place a 100 times. I honestly have to say it was delicious. I had the pork-chop fra Diavolo with gnocchi. It was tasty with just enough spice. I look forward to going back. read more

My favorite date night spot! Wednesdays are the best days to dine in my opinion. Food is always amazing! Service is fast and servers are knowledgeable of the menu. Ambience is cozy and private. Bartenders are fast and make a mean cocktail read more

Have passed this hidden gem a million times on the to the shore. So pleased to pick this place for dinner with friends. Great service with big portions. The dining room is intimate with just 6 or so tables. Although there are TVs, they are muted so my dining partners were able to have great conversations. Upon arrival, the bread landed on the table with roasted peppers and butter. Very good. The house salad was loaded with chopped veggies with a crisp vinaigrette. All our entrees were tasty and delicious. Definitely will return. read more

I had read about Briglia's Tavern on the South Jersey Food Scene FB page several times and was always curious. I looked it up and realized we pass it often coming back from Brigantine. So on our last trip to Brigantine we decided to give it try. Briglia's is tucked in a strip mall off of Route 30 (White Horse Pike) on the East side of Berlin. It is not much to look at from the outside. There are some tables and also a tent for larger events. Customers enter through the bar area. We were greeted by our super pleasant server who directed us to a really nice and cozy dining room in the back. It was nice surprise. As others have written, the menu is pretty large. There are a lot of choices and different styles of food. The majority is homemade Italian. We tried a special, the stuffed Zucchini flowers with Lobster and Ricotta. This dish was a little pricey but amazing. We also had the whiskey glazed Gruper which was also very good and the potatoes were outstanding. We had carrot cake for dessert. Briglia's has some local beers on draft and nice selection of cocktails. Our server was great and all of the staff was very friendly. We will definitely stop by next time on our way back from Brigantine. read more

Was SO delightfully surprised going to Brigalias Tavern tonight for dinner We started with mussels fra diavolo which was served with garlic bread on top. Perfectly not too spicy and perfectly garlicky (is that a word?) It came beforehand with bread and some amazing peppers in a tomato base and salads. The balsamic house is perfect sweet and acidity. I got the white chicken parm and let me tell you, the chicken was crispy and cooked perfectly- nice and brown. Topped with provolone and ricotta and mozzarella. The side of capellini was in a garlic olive oil sauce and was AMAZING! My girlfriend got the sachetti purse pasta with shrimp. The blush sauce was so good. It comes in second to Toscana for me, but she said she liked it better. Either way, it was so good! We finished with a bread pudding and I almost got the manninos cannoli but I didn't have room in my stomach. The drink I got was a seasonal cranberry sangria and it was so good and spiced perfectly for the season! The service was 10/10 and our server was so friendly and made amazing recommendations. She was so attentive and nice! The atmosphere is no frills, cozy, and very welcoming. I'll 10/10 be back! read more

This hole in the wall off of Route 73 is too easy to miss from the outside, as most people just whiz by. Next time make a pit stop because this place is such a hidden gem! Who knew all the times I'd driven by and never even saw it. I'm utterly blown away by how good this place is - food, service, and ambiance. We came with a large group of 12 and they had no issues accommodating. Food was cooked perfect and plated nicely, service was super attentive and friendly, the dining room is cozy but not claustrophobic. Bathroom is clean! Come hungry!! read more

Amazing fresh seafood Italian fair! Not what you expected, finding a hidden gem in a small rural community when a tavern serves food the like of Philadelphia, PA. The menu is extended, and everything looks very appetizing, so choosing one item is unfair to my taste buds. We will be back to taste some more goodness. read more

I have no idea where to start on this review and I still wish yelp would allow for 1/2 stars because I would rate this between a 3 and 4. It's an interesting place with some aspects of the meal were very good and some not. Also, I'm not sure of the identity of the place as a whole. I'll try to describe it the best I can. Atmosphere: The place very small and in a strip mall. Probably would be hard to find if you didn't know where you were going. But that's not a bad thing. When you walk in the bar is to the left with some high tops located on the right. We chose to eat in the dinning room in the back. It was a cold night and my wife complained about the coldness in the dinning room especially when the staff opened the door to the storage area. Overall though it was a cute place, eclectically decorated. Service: Our server was excellent and very friendly. Not intrusive but attentive. The bus staff was also friendly. Food: Let me start out by saying that the menu is huge, which to me questions the freshness of the food items. I did notice a bag of frozen shrimp coming out of the storage area. Now, that doesn't mean the food is bad, just not fresh. I ordered the Sesame Tuna entree special and my wife ordered the Mom's homemade marinara with a meatball. The presentation for both were great as my pictures show. Before receiving our entrees, the meals come with bread, which was tasty, and a small salad, which was nothing special and was slightly overdressed. My tuna was cooked nicely but if I'm not mistaken was previously frozen, I could be wrong. Either way it tasted ok and was a little tough to me. The sesame crust was good and the wasabi sauce was tasty, but the tuna itself left something to be desired. My sides actually became the highlight of the meal. The mashed potatoes were nice and buttery and the greens were tasty. My wife enjoyed her meal. I tried a little of the pasta and it was good. The biggest problem though was the price. Very pricey for what you got. Pasta and a meatball for $24? I still plan on going back to try some of their special item days because I've heard they're good, but I think there are less pricier options around were I live. read more

Really impressed with the food my first time here. As others have said that roast beef sandwich is top tier. Bartender was great and the menu is way more diverse than you'd expect. Unassuming from the outside but big things going on in the kitchen. Can't wait to go back. read more

Wow!! My husband and I had to stop at HITCH RV and this place was right down the road. We ordered a bowl of crab bisque to share (sorry no pic, we ate it too fast!), appetizer of 6 Buffalo wing pieces and the calamari fritti. A small salad had an up charge to change from iceberg to romaine lettuce. Everything tasted fantastic, the prices are on point, and the service was perfect. This place looked like a HITW from outside but inside, although small, fills up fast on a Saturday night. One less star because the calamari fritti had a lot of fried zucchini and fried pepper slices. I loved it all, but I would have liked more calamari. Will be back when in the neighborhood again read more

So first time stopping here from the shore . OMG We have been missing out and you will be missing out on some great food. The filet bruschetta was to die for. So tasty n the service is great . And the adorable dining room in the back is perfect. We will be here again I hope to see you all read more

I have to preface this one by saying I'm sorry. I really really really wanted to love this place, and maybe because I had such high hopes that it just didn't pull through for me. I also struggle with not giving small businesses 5 stars because they work so hard, but I'm going to give my honest opinion and then you should check it out and decide for yourself! Atmosphere: Super tiny and super cute. Total hole in the wall you wouldn't notice if you weren't looking. Clean and comfy. Service: Very kind, friendly and attentive. Food: The SOTD was crab bisque (my favorite ever), and it just had some weird tangy taste that was too overwhelming. My husband had the French Onion and he said it was too sweet for his liking. Salads were meh, nothing fancy. For dinner I had a white pasta with crab, my husband had the gnocchi sausage and peppers, and my grandmother + aunt had the filet. I just didn't love mine, I wish I had gone with a chicken parm or something. It just wasn't very tasty. My husband said the same about his, it was okay, but wouldn't go for it again. However my aunt and grandmother devoured their filets with mashed potatoes and greens. I just feel like they're so many Italian joints in the area that I'll give them a chance instead of returning. But it is a small business that you can tell is busting their butt, so I recommend you give them a shot and maybe they'll impress your palate. read more

Ignore the one bad review! Purposefully ordered the cream of crab soup to see what the other reviewer complained about - which was everything! Been want to try this place for several weeks and it did not disappoint! Every thing was excellent from the old fashions to the dessert. Burr Star was as creamy as can be, cream of crab very tasty, home in veal Chop - very tasty and tender. Place is small And they don't take reservations. We ate lunch b the tavern- service was excellent. Will definitely be back l! Oh yes and the old fashioneda we had were perfect! read more

Well, Matt the owner waited on us. That is interesting. Thank you for explaining common sense, I understand all about the issue with staff in our current situation. We were seated quickly, that was never an issue. Food was meh, nothing special and too expensive as I said, but Matt the owner thinks it is reasonable. Thank you for explaining the plastic cup thing, I thought it was strange to have real silverware and plates and plastic cups. Also, you have no idea who I am or what I do, I understand heat and wearing a mask, you say you think you don't have to wear a mask outdoors. Maybe you are right, but when you told me it would be 30 minutes wait for a seat while INSIDE the restaurant, your mask was not in correctly. Good luck you and your tavern. read more

It's okay, my husband liked his food, my sandwich was had no sauce, was cold, and soggy bread :-/

We came with a group of people for our first experience. The chicken fingers were normal, nothing special, I chose the special of the Shepherds Pie which was decent. We ordered 2 burgers that were a bit bloody and not cooked well done as asked which made the buns very soggy. We sent one back to be cooked further and to swap out the bun. No one wants a soggy burger. The fries were crispy and good! The service was attentive, but I had to take stars off for the burgers which I had very high hopes for. Picture of the Shepherds pie if you visit during the holiday read more

Note: This was written, but not posted, before COVID-19. It was my first time here tonight with my family and wow, what a great dinner! This place is small but mighty, with attentive staff and delicious, fresh, made-to-order food. I had the burrata, the wings, and the roast beef sandwich. All were simply amazing. Creamy burrata with peaches, prosciutto, and balsamic vinegar- fantastic combo. The wings were spicy and crisp and tender! And the roast beef was juicy, the fries perfectly crisp, and the jus so flavorful I was drinking it. The ambiance is great, too. Small but really cute! Five stars, love this place. It's amazing. Everyone should come by. read more
